Topic: Skin Development: Onyx (Read 1699 times)

I have sketched up an aesthetic test for a skin that I will be working on after the 0810 release, a dark skin, appropriately titled, Onyx, shiny black base, with crisp lines.

This one will take a lot more time, due to the fact that each button needs to have a language-skin-designobj override in Designer to do the proper text alignment and kerning. A font will also be required.

Only one or two screens left for both UI 1 and two. I have to do some new buttons still for UI 2. So Close... I think I need a good 2 or 3 hours to finish. Was hoping to have it done by tomorrow but it may be a few days more.

Nice stuff I like it. Personally I much prefer the slick look of the black interface. Looks more professional somehow.

wierdbeard65 - "meh" pretty much equals indifference, or unimpressed

Unimpressed may sound a bit insulting, it wasn't meant to be. Indifference is more accurate. It was a slight improvement over the original version, just fairly similar and nothing to get excited about. Onyx IMHO will be a noticeable visual improvement. Looks like it's going to be very slick and give the UI a whole new feel, not just a slight color change.
